After dad’s passing we moved from CA to Idaho. Trying to register 67 dune buggy, but can’t locate the vin number.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know I,m late to the party but I just found this thread. My dad was Ron Christensen, he passed away a few years ago. He drove with Les in 1969 as shown on your list of races. I remeber as a kid playing in Les’s salvage yard while my dad and Les worked. I also have some pictures of them racing. I too would like to own one of the original cars. I also remeber my dad building his own Burro right in our garage. He bolted the tubing bender in the middle of our driveway. The whole car was 1 inch square tubing and stick welded. Those were the days!

Great effort to bring back the history. Also thank you for posting these pictures.

My name is Chuck Luettgerodt. I used to work for Jerry Wood, who used to work with Les at the Salvage yard in Compton. Jerry built all of the transaxles and engines in those days for Les and hundreds of other racers and daily drivers. Jerry isn’t doing well health wise, and I’m trying to find out any information on Les. The last we heard, he and his wife divorced and Les moved to Mexico. Jerry and I haven’t heard anything since. We can’t even locate Ed, his son. Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks, Chuck Luettgerodt.
